Hello, I have had tinnitus going on for 5 years. I have had many colds, etc. and am aware of the spikes that these infections can cause. I am...
@racedy, hi there! My oral surgeon at the Mayo said that it’s about a 50/50 chance of a night guard helping with the clenching. The other 50%...
What exercises did you do?
I take it. No effect on my tinnitus.
@Stillsearching What does your PT sound like? Is it a beep?
Off subject, but I have always wondered why some people who are deaf, do not have tinnitus. My brother in law is deaf, and does not have tinnitus....
None is the above for me. I have severe TMJD (need surgery) and wearing a splint causes me to clench down harder on it, causing more pain. I...
Yes, I get this. For me, it seems to be neck related. If I moved my neck wrong it triggers it. At least I think. Sorry I am not a lot of help.
Hi all, I have not tested positive, as my state is not testing unless you’re a health care worker or admitted to the hospital. But I believe I...
He's 58, but he has had tinnitus for almost 30 years, I guess. I'm with you, much more sensitive. I will say even though my dad lives his life...
My dad. He has tinnitus, too and it’s been extremely helpful to have someone to talk to that ‘gets it’... although his tinnitus is on a whole...
I live where it’s extremely cold. It can get as low as -50 degrees Fahrenheit during our winters. In my experience my tinnitus spikes when I’m in...
Yes! We actually stored our regular grill away, ha. The ham is totally worth the wait, one year my husband and I had a ham cook-off (I cooked one...
My family does! When I say my family, I mean mostly my husband. :) He's smoked a lot of fun stuff on the Traeger grill. We smoke everything......
Done.
Yes, it started after I had a surgery where I was intubated. Both discs were displaced during the surgery, and the tinnitus started shortly after....
My tinnitus is very similar. For me, I believe my TMJD causes inflammation and ETD symptoms, which causes my tinnitus. Like you, ENT’s say my ears...
Hi @Telis, I am not sure what all takes place with a vasectomy... but wanted to reach out because I had an autoimmune response to a surgery, as...
@aberob Thank you. My oral surgeon thinks I need this surgery, but I haven’t moved forward with it yet and am going the PT route. The ear symptoms...
Hi @aberob, other than the tinnitus not get better, did the scope surgery help your jaw issues at all? Did you have any ear fullness?
My dad, he says his is 9/10 and can hear it over everything, including the shower. My cousin, same severity as my dads. Two coworkers, again...
Yes... happens multiple times a day with jaw and neck movements.
@TheDanishGirl I've been on birth control pills for 13 years, and I do not believe it caused my tinnitus or made it any worse. I hope this helps!
Hey! Could you PM me? I tried to PM you but it wouldn't let me.
Sure. "We are currently running a trial. If you live within 100 miles of Ann Arbor you may be eligible. We hope to begin commercialization...
Makes sense. Thank you!
The way I read it was that she planned on it being on the market next year. But I could be wrong. I never asked her when she thought her device...
I emailed Dr. Shore about this trial, hoping to maybe get in. She said that they plan to begin commercialization next year. Just thought I would...
@Ken219 Do you know what kind of jaw surgery? I need to have TMJD surgery, but am afraid of it worsening my tinnitus.
@Greg Sacramento Might be able to help you.
My ears do the exact same thing. I do not have ETD, but I do have confirmed TMJD. It apparently causes very similar symptoms.
Hi all, Do you protect your ears if there is a thunderstorm and you’re inside? Thanks!
@Daniel Lion Oh, perfect! That would be nice if there were some outdoor pools around here. Everything where I live is lakes and boating. Would...
@Daniel Lion I'm sorry, I truly understand. I was mostly looking for just quiet activities, as I know we can't be exposed to anything loud. And...
@Candy Agreed. I grew up spending every weekend or nice day on the water. So it's been a pretty big bummer that it might not be the norm anymore....
@Candy As far as boat trips, what kind of boating do you do with you family? We do a lot of pontooning, but I haven't had tinnitus for a summer...
@linearb I will look into the book, thank you! My TMJD is okay some days and very bad on others. I have a bite guard as well...you're right, SO...
@linearb Absolutely. I feel the same way. I am able to cope now, but know that if it were to get any worse, I would probably lose it. Which is why...
@linearb I like your mentality. I'd love for that to be my case. I never want to hold my kids back, so they go on without me. But I want to be...
@Elliott.S All great ideas, thank you!
@Elliott.S Thank you for your response! I live in a cold climate. So we are only able to be outside for a few months out of the year. But I will...
Hi Everyone! I have two young kids, and I am having trouble finding activities that are okay to do with them, while having tinnitus. They still...
@BuzzyBee I feel the same way. I had a couple colds prior to the one I took Sudafed for and my clogged ear and congestion lasted a lot longer...
Hi @BuzzyBee, I ended up taking the Sudafed. It helped with my ears too. I also think I got a little spike that subsided once it wore off each...
@Bill Bauer I think you tagged the wrong person. *Edited to add, I just saw I must have clicked "funny" with my thumb while scrolling on my...
Hi all, I have a question regarding a cold... My ears are plugged. I haven't noticed a huge increase in tinnitus...yet. I'm on day three. Is it...
@HiDezGuy74 My tinnitus does the same thing. Extremely quiet stretches followed by a sudden spike. It’s so hard to habituate. I, like you, am...
@Lane Thank you! I'd image it would be pretty hard to avoid these signals in every day life. Kind of a bummer.
@Lane How to people get tinnitus from these devices? This is all new to me. Should people with tinnitus avoid these things? Thanks!
Question: Both of my kids have the flu, I’m starting to get it as well. I’m taking vitamin C. Anything else I should do? Does the flu always take...
@Agrajag364 Mine seems to get louder after I’ve eaten or if I’m tense, which could definitely be stress related. It also gets really quiet after...
@Agrajag364 I'm not sure if it is stress related, it all started after a surgery I had. So it most definitely could be. Although it's only in...
@Agrajag364 That's true. Thank you for the perspective. I am new to all of this, so still trying to learn as much as possible about it. Are you...
@Bill Bauer Thank you for your response. I will read the thread you linked. Greg has been helping me a lot via messages thus far. I am truly...
Hi all, Looking for some support or advice, whichever you have to offer! My tinnitus is constantly changing. It's never the same. Sometimes its...
@Greg Sacramento Would you mind PMing me? I have a question but it’s location related.
Thank you!
@Greg Sacramento Hi again, Just left PT, here's what he recommended... He wants to do a more aggressive approach on my neck, using massage,...
@Greg Sacramento Thank you so much for your reply. You’re right I am a doer, and it may be taking a toll on my body more than I was aware. I...
@Greg Sacramento Is there a link to the stretches I should be following? I've found quite a few and don't wan't to try the wrong one. Also, in...
